Ahead of 2022 Uttar Pradesh polls, the Bahujan Samaj Party on Sunday slammed Akhilesh Yadav over his announcement of free electricity and perks for farmers by saying that Samajwadi Party is a party of lies, propaganda and deceit and people of UP know this very well.
“Samajwadi Party is a party of lies and propaganda. It is a party of deceit. It creates religious conflict in society in association with the Bharatiya Janata Party. Instead of electricity, they generate loot, deceit and lies,” said BSP’s Sudhindra Bhadoria.

“Whenever SP government has been formed in Uttar Pradesh, the state has been pushed into riots, darkness and loot. This time too, on the occasion of elections, they are making such false promises which can never be fulfilled,” Bhadoria added
